Don't get it when people say "Cena's already a heel" or "he's the biggest heel in the business". He doesn't act like a heel in any way whatsoever. Just because he gets negative reactions doesn't mean he's a heel.

Guess I can't grasp the concept.

How many times does he have to say he doesn't care what anyone thinks of him? That is not being a face, that is saying "I don't care what you want or who you favor. I am better than you" which is being a heel.

No not all his promos are heelish, but he does a lot of heelish things.

Like no sell multiple finishers to exposed concrete in the same match and still beat the 10 count.

Also, CM Punk is a heel who stopped insulting the fans. Inject that again and he's still heel, much like The Rock AND Austin in their primes.

Seriously, TPWW, what would honestly be gained around here from Cena turning heel?

If they actually DID pull the trigger on that, everyone would bitch about how it's not being done right, and there would still be a multitude of Cena haters: only it wouldn't be a mix of cheers and boos, it'd be a mixture of boos and apathetic X-Pac heat.

It's not so much that he needs to turn heel. He just needs a breath of fresh air breathed into his character. A heel turn COULD do that, but so could adding something to him besides SUPERCENA!!! A good road COULD have been against Punk with never being able to beat him for the title (sometimes even straight up, no screwjob or run-in) no matter how hard he tried. They derailed that and decided to run the CM face gravy train, but that's another topic for another time.

Think about this: one of the reasons everyone is so high on Cody Rhodes is the fact that he keeps reinventing himself. He went from "nobody CAW" to generic cocky heel in Legacy, to primping pretty boy, to troubled former pretty boy, to the kind of vicious, self-centered heel Orton used to be. He also did this in a relativly short period of time considering his tenure in the 'E.

That entire time, Cena has pretty much done the same schtick.


A heel turn isn't 100% money as an answer. He just needs to change up his gimmick a bit. Or go away for awhile. Or, even better, both. Didn't mean that "go away" in the "we hate Cena" way. I just meant that usually, when people disappear due to injury or suspension or whatever, they come back and make an impact because everyone is all like "oh, we haven't seen HIM for awhile!" Cena could use that, and then come back re-invented. Heel or not.
